About this project

The
neighborhood of East Nashville, Tennessee is a wonderfully interesting
mix of personalities and people, and the area is a charming, attractive
place to live because in some respects it has not changed in many years,
but in other areas of the neighborhood, changes are happening before
anyone realizes...a new business opens up, one closes, buildings and
homes are remodeled and some torn down...people move in and people move
away. Everyone agrees it is a great place to live.

One of the
most interesting things about East Nashville, is the number of
world-class musicians that live within it's borders. This is their story.

The "East
Nashville Musician Documentary" consists of two components, incorporating
still photography of musicians, places and events that
shape the neighborhood, and the documentary film project, interviewing the musicians that have made the neighborhood home. Filming and photography will commence in the Spring/Summer of 2012, and
will continue until the neighborhood has spoken.

Here is a small excerpt of some of the artists interviews:

Please help by pledging what you can toward this project. We have
some great rewards, and anticipate that the documentary film and book
project will cost more than the Kickstarter funding amount, but we set
the goal at a level where we thought full funding would be possible.

Remember that any amount of donation to the cause is very much appreciated, you can pledge $1, $5, $10 or more and get a great reward...and all
the funding will go directly towards film and book production costs.

Thank you for your support.
